Slot Antennas - John Portune - W6NBC

Most hams are not familiar with HF, VHF and UHF slot antennas. John, W6NBC, will discuss his research and development of unique small HF/VHF/UHF slot antennas. Most of John’s designs make great efficient stealth antennas. John, licensed since 1965, was in the technical side of broadcast television, principally for KNBC channel 4 Los Angeles, Ampex Corporation in Redwood City CA, and Sony Electronics in San Jose, CA, as a technical instructor/writer. He has written many articles for QST covering different subjects. This past February, John won the QST Cover Plaque Award — given to the author of the most popular article in each issue.
